I have no idea why it took me so long to recognize the voice, but you’re absolutely right. With all the backstory sequences, it finally dawned on me that Yakone is voiced the beyond-talented Clancy Brown!

He previously voiced Long Feng in A:TLA and was also the guy behind one of my favorite animated villains: Lex Luthor. Brown was also on another of my favorite shows of all time, HBO’s Carnivàle. He’s a great character/voice actor and I think we saw the true extent of his talents in today’s finale. Hope there’s room for him in Book 2 (as a new character, of course).
